Tuesdays With Morrie

[Title27GT]

I'm assuming some of you read the book at some point. Can you guys help me describe the author as a person? I'm sort of running short on ideas here.

He's a sports writer.

Uhhh.....that's all I got

That's pretty much all I've got too

Just say he was an average guy and Tuesdays With Morrie was his most philosophical book.

Because he really wasn't very philosophical. He was just a sports writer.

No one gives

Shut the fuck up. I understand you don't understand how things work around here, but we don't intentionally make posts that do not contribute to the question asked and especially something as non-contributive as "no one gives". I don't know how many times it's going to take for you to get the message, but hopefully you'll be banned before we find out.

If we were that intolerant, you'd be banned a long time ago.

From the beginning, you will recognize just how much Mitch Albom has reinvented himself by the words of Morrie Schwartz. Albom was admittedly a hot-shot money-hungry fool before revisiting his old professor. After absorbing Morrie?s words, though, he returns to his honorable and sound way of thinking that he maintained in his younger days as Morrie?s apprentice. If there was an ideal way of describing Mitch Albom, it would most certainly be introspective. A man that willing to not only learn from a dying man and share what he has learned with the world, but recondition himself as a person according to those words.
   Upon learning more about Mr.Albom, you?ll also notice that Tuesdays With Morrie was his most philosophical piece of writing. After all, Albom is your typical big-market sports writer, as cold and dispassionate as could be, until his feelings about the man he looks up to most are revealed in compelling and heart-breaking way.

I miss anything Selkie?

He is a sports writer for some newspaper in Michigan.

He didn't come off to me as a confident person considering he gave up his dreams(piano player) to earn a paycheck.
He seemed shy and not very open also. Took a while for Morrie to really get to him. However, he really changed towards the end. He started to become more emotional and open to other people.
